FIGURE 1
FIGURE 1. Identifying and Improving the Prognosis for Sudden Cardiac Arrest Victims
Phases in the management of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) shown in temporal sequence on the top row, focusing on elements that impact outcome. Harhash et al. (12) focus on patients achieving restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and, in those lacking ST-segment elevation (STE) on the electrocardiogram (ECG), whether prognosis is improved by emergent catheterization or whether comorbid risks dilute the potential benefits. ICD = implantable cardioverter defibrillator; ICU = intensive care unit; TTM = therapeutic temperature modulation.
